Summary

The article presents the preliminary results of a series of experiments that demonstrate the potential of condensation enhancement utilizing a porous metallic coating. In these experiments, the condensation heat transfer data is obtained by condensing saturated steam at atmospheric pressure on vertical isothermal copper plates that are plain and porous-coated. The results are compared to the original theory developed by Nusselt and the theoretical model of Renken et al.
